Description:

GHG, CO2 and CH4 emissions over time (in GtCO2eq) with historical emissions, projected emissions in line with policies implemented until the end of 2020 (grey), and pathways consistent with temperature goals in colour (blue, purple, and brown, respectively). This figure shows pathways that limit warming to 2°C (>66%) (C3).
